It’s increasingly harder to overlook the global fertility crisis. Fertility rates in more economically advantaged countries are in serious decline. This raises concerns for the future of many countries, with some governments beginning campaigns. The issue is even becoming more politicised, as more nations are offering financial incentives for its citizens to start family planning.
We hope to explain the issues that can arise due to this fertility crisis with our new video podcast on The Guardian’s new YouTube channel, It’s Complicated. This particular topic is a complex one, and some of the queries that might arise from it can be influenced by a range of issues, including economic uncertainty, cultural shifts, government policies, environmental concerns, forever chemicals, and hormonal changes. These are a few questions we have but we would like to hear from you.
We’re inviting you to share your questions, insights, or what you’ve always wondered about the fertility crisis.
Your responses will help guide our research and may be answered by guest experts in our video podcast. Join the conversation by getting in touch — your thoughts are invaluable as we navigate this complex topic together.
